Can You Find Me Now?

For the post paid people of the world who would actually want to be found if an emergency were to hit, you will find a helpful list if tips and tricks that will help save your life.

Tips for helping police and rescue workers find you in an emergency:

-Don't hang up. When you call 911, the longer you keep the line open, the better the chance emergency personnel will find you.
-Tell operators your location as soon as possible. Be specific.
-Ask your cellular provider what method they use to locate 911 calls on your phone.
-Consider replacing phones more than 2 years old. Newer phones have GPS chips that can tell 911 operators your location.
-If you live in a rural area, pick a phone with GPS rather than triangulation as its location method. Rural areas have fewer towers, which makes it harder to fix your position.

For those of you who want to stay off the radar of law enforcement whether they are there to help save your live or not; stick to your prepaid non GPS devise.
